Quiz
La femmina di Singapore (1941) is an American romantic drama directed by Jean Negulesco and starring Brenda Marshall, David Bruce and Virginia Field. The Warner Bros. B picture is a remake of Paura d'amare (1935) using leftover sets from Ombre malesi (1940). The story was based on Laird Doyle's story "Hard Luck Dame". At one point, both Ida Lupino and Jeffrey Lynn were attached to the project but the latter was suspended by the studio after refusing to play in the film. Although Negulesco was the sole credited director, he left the production and the film was completed by producer Harlan Thompson.

Film Noir?

Brenda Marshall's father was a rubber plantation supervisor in Malaysia. Then he died and everything went to pot. The current manager, David Bruce, has scraped together enough money to buy the needed equipment when Miss Marshall descends on him, wrecking a bar in town and captivating him. She won't commit, though. She knows she's a jinx.

Jean Negulesco's first feature is a switched-location version of DANGEROUS, with set design by Charles Novi and a good-girl-bad-girl dichotomy that might make you think it's an early example of film noir. It's not. The ropes and scrims soon vanish, letting you know it's intended as the closely allied genre of magical realism, albeit one with a surprisingly feminist slant. Even that vanishes in the end with a rushed and silly ending, sending Negulesco back to musical shorts for the next three years. With Virginia Field, Jerome Cowan, Rose Hobart, Heather Angel, and Dorothy Tree.
